    Notes: Atomic force microscopy has been used to characterize wear and oxidation of transition metal dichalcogenide surfaces. Sequential images recorded on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and niobium diselenide (NbSe2) surfaces show that wear proceeds at defects, and that MoS2 wears at least five times more slowly than NbSe2. Images of thermally treated MoS2 and NbSe2 further demonstrate that oxidation creates surface defects on both materials. However, for similar oxidation conditions, NbSe2 surfaces show extensive degradation, while MoS2 surfaces only exhibit isolated defects. The implications of these results to understanding the tribological properties of the transition metal dichalcogenides are discussed.

    Notes: Scanning tunneling microscopy has been used to study the modification of tin diselenide (SnSe2) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) surfaces in ultrahigh vacuum. We have shown that there are positive bias voltage pulse thresholds that must be exceeded to remove material from the surfaces of SnSe2 and MoS2. The voltage threshold for modification of SnSe2(+1.4 V) is significantly smaller in magnitude than the threshold for modification of MoS2(+3.5 V). These threshold results and tip-sample distance dependence data suggest that modification occurs by field evaporation. Additionally, near threshold pulses create stable atomic sizes defects that can be erased by high voltage scanning.

    Notes: Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) tips have been used to image nanostructures with high resolution. Studies of gold nanocrystal standards showed that SWNT tips provide a significant improvement in lateral resolution with respect to multi-walled nanotube tips and microfabricated Si tips. The nanotube tips were also used to resolve substructure within SWNTs deposited on surfaces. These results suggest that observed 1.5 nm high structures can correspond to several SWNTs aligned in parallel. In addition, SWNT tips exhibited superior resolution compared to conventional tips when imaging biological nanostructures, such as double-stranded DNA. The potential and future challenges of SWNT tips are discussed. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Recent developments in scanning tunneling microscopy studies of the electronic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes are reviewed. A broad range of topics focused on the unique electronic properties of nanotubes are discussed, including (a) the underlying theoretical description of the electronic properties of nanotubes; (b) the roles of finite curvature and broken symmetries in perturbing electronic properties; (c) the unique one-dimensional energy dispersion in nanotubes; (d) the nature of end states; (e) quantum size effects in short tubes; (f) the interactions between local spins and carriers in metallic systems (the Kondo effect); and (g) the atomic structure and electronic properties of intramolecular junctions. The implications of these studies for understanding fundamental one-dimensional physics and future nanotube device applications are discussed.

    Notes: [Auszug] Carbon nanotubes are predicted to be metallic or semiconducting depending on their diameter and the helicity of the arrangement of graphitic rings in their walls. Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) offers the potential to probe this prediction, as it can resolve simultaneously both atomic ...
